I completed one on the Christmas gifts. Monday night I had a small epiphany in that I realized if I crocheted at least some of the gifts, I would be able to finish things a lot faster and maybe even have everything done on time! So I worked these up…
One down, six to go
These are for a very slender girl so I made them smaller than what I would make for myself. I hope they fit. The lavender is so in her palette of colors. I really hope she enjoys them.
The knitted red mitts and the evergreen scarf are coming along too, just more slowly :)
I hope you all have a safe and wonderful holiday tomorrow, and for those of you who are outside the U.S., I hope your day is also safe and wonderful :)
I am grateful for so many things, but when try to write them down it all seems so sappy. They’re all really basic things like a roof over my head, plenty to eat, a wonderful partner and enough yarn to keep me occupied for a while. I’m glad for my friends of whom there seem to be more than I thought - which sometimes confuses me because my social skills are very rudimentary - but which makes me happy. I’m thankful for the beauty of the natural world - more and more all the time - and which I seem to appreciate more fully as I get older.
I enjoy and am every day thankful for my two terrorists:
Why are you interrupting my nap, Infidel?
and
Aw c’mon - just a little tummy rub?
And, I am just happy to be alive :) As my mother used to say, “I’m planning to live forever; doing pretty good so far!”
No trackbacks yet.
to you and all of yours a happy thanksgiving too-
i add to my list being thankful for a new friend who is soo talented- (cryptic remark: hehehe, i told you so!!)
stay happy-
LOL - Cryptic remark indeed :) I know you’re going to be busy, but please try to find some time to relax and enjoy? I find counting my blessings a pleasure these days, when I can remember to do so :)
Enjoy Thanksgiving Robbyn!! I think the mitts are great, I am sure the receipient will also love ‘em. :) L
Lisa - Thanks. I hope the holidays are kind to you as well. Seems like some warmth and celebration might be in order!
Happy Thanksgiving, Robbyn. What, no mouthwatering descriptions of upcoming gastronomical delights? Your slackin’ girl!
Lisa - Thanks :) I’m going out for dinner today and may even have seafood instead of turkey! No worries, there will be more recipes forthcoming, eventually.
